Christmas magic and birthday beers

This morning we went to choose our tree. I was beside myself with excitement. Started to worry as all the trees seemed too sparse or absolutely massive.

Hooray...we found him.... Of course he had to be the other side of the inner fence. Can't believe husband is clambering over fencing that used to keep the Russians and hippies out in the old Cold War days.

Husband used up what was left of his energy sawing through the tree which promptly fell on top of me. Schoolboy error standing the wrong side.

Then we had to get the monster over the fence which would have been much easier if I hadn't had developed a fit of the giggles.

We have had to cut 3 feet up from the bottom (which I'm happy about as was upset at killing a tree but he is now still left to grown in the ground with some branches left) then accidentally two feet came off his top but now we think he will fit into the dining room. Other than we hadn't thought through he would be too no for the car. Hhhhmmm going to have to call for back up.

Louis has text...Adam has whisked her away to Venice for the weekend and didn't tell her until they were at the airport. A very glamorous present for the foxy mama to be. Top brownie points to you Ad xx

Tonight we went out for chippy's 40th birthday meal and drinks... Or I should now say sir chip Allsop seeing as husband has bought him a title for his birthday. It was a bit of a joke but he thinks its fabulous. Cans wait to see a piccie of his debit cards once he's changed his name on them. Hilarious.

Big meal, too much beer and a boogie... I can sense throbbing feet and a two day hangover coming on.
